]]>JET Programme Video Contest 2017
Held as part of the JET Programme 30th anniversary commemorations, the ‘JET Programme Video Contest’ was first held from October 2015 to August 2016 to showcase the hidden charms of Japan’s local communities as seen through the eyes of current and former JET participants. It resonated with the JET community and garnered 107 submissions over the ‘Spring/Summer’ and ‘Fall/Winter’ periods. As a result of this success, CLAIR held the contest again in 2017 to continue promoting communities that utilise the JET Programme.
The videos submitted in 2017 were judged by a panel of experts on 14 February, 2018, and eight award winners were chosen.
